Portland - Climbers Club Guide

THE guidebook for this iconic climbing area. The Climbers Club Portland Guide includes a mixture of pure sport routes, some great trad climbing and loads of bouldering.

This new guide is a completely different format from those that have gone before; it is an A5 landscape style which works really well for the areas covered - the guide is in full colour throughout with a fantastic set of action shots, a full set of clear crag photo topos, the usual star ratings plus loads of information on where to stay in the area, local gear shops, where to eat and drink plus user friendly colour coded pages to make finding areas / crags straightforward.

About the Author:

The main author, Steve Taylor has spent much of the past decade painstakingly updating and investigating the many hundreds of climbs in the area. He has been at the heart of the new routing activity, both forging new lines and supporting others on their projects. He has added his experience and contacts with the local activists into the definitive guide. Supporting him, two local activists Ben Stokes and Jim Kimber, have helped add their knowledge of their preferred specialism of climbing. The book is heaving with experience and many handy tips and warnings are given within the text or highlighted in blue boxes on the page.
